Bureau for Unstable Urbanism is proposed as a trans-national network of individuals and groups involved in a variety of practices that engage in different ways with contemporary urban space, actually or conceptually. The project was initiated in Bergen (Norway) but is not specific to any country or city. The notion of “unstable urbanism” is an undefined yet resonant term to describe ways of thinking about or acting upon changing urban phenomena.
According to that Telegraph article, Google said they would remove Argleton from the map. Fortunately, they haven't yet, and now several enterprising souls have attached photos to the site, thus making it more "real". If even more people do the same it will get interesting. A digital ghost town, a conceptual artwork.
